Intensity of the TM solution for a bow-tie mode plotted in a false color scale. Authors present a new method, based on the refraction and reflection of Gaussian and Hermite-Gaussian beams centered at stable periodic rays, for estimating quasi-bound modes of dielectric micro-cavities. [See article by Tureci et al. Fig. 6 for details.]
